MADISON COUNTY SCHOOLS

THERE ARE 25 OF THE OLD ONE ROOM SCHOOLHOUSES ON THIS SITE. ORIGINALLY THERE WERE AROUND 200 OF THESE SCHOOLS IN THIS COUNTY DURING THE ERA OF THEIR PRIMARY USAGE FROM THE 1860s-1930s.

TO MAKE SURE IT TRULY WAS A ONE ROOM SCHOOLHOUSE AT ONE TIME IN THE PAST, BEFORE ANY OF THE SCHOOLS WERE PLACED ON THIS SITE, I VERIFIED THE ACCURACY OF THE LOCATION THROUGH A DUPLICATE VERIFICATION PROCESS. ALSO, EVERY HOUSE THAT IS POSTED ON THIS SITE IS COMPRISED OF THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE ORIGINAL SCHOOL,WHICH IS ALSO PERSONALLY VERIFIED. ALTHOUGH SOME HAVE HAD SIDING ADDED, OR OTHER MODIFICATIONS, THEY HAVE KEPT THE ORIGINAL STRUCTURE UNDERNEATH OF IT. EVERYTHING THAT IS POSTED IS TRULY WHAT CONSISTS OF ALMOST ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SCHOOL HOUSE.

I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION THAT ALL OF MY PHOTOGRAPHS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING COPYRIGHTED. I AM WILLING TO GIVE THE RIGHTS TO NON-PROFIT HISTORICAL PROJECTS, LIBRARIES, SCHOOLS, HISTORICAL SOCIETIES. HOWEVER, IF MY PHOTOS ARE USED AS A PROFIT SOURCE, I DO EXPECT COMPENSATION.

This church is within just a few miles from where several of where the old schools sat. Quite likely that numerous of those students and their families attended services here.
